When Pei Chi saw that the soup in Mrs. Pei's hand was almost spilled, Pei Chi was afraid that his mother might accidentally splash it on Pei Yu, so he didn't even bother to kneel down and even stood up to take the bowl of soup in Mrs. Pei's hand. He came over and put her aside, then went to help her and whispered: "Mom, if you have anything to say, please go back to the house to talk."
Pei Chi said, and quickly winked at Pei Yu, who was still kneeling on the ground. Pei Yu was very scared at this time, and she didn't react when she saw Pei Chi's eyes, but when her mother called her, she couldn't help but shrink back. Shrinking her neck, she responded with a shaky voice, sniffed, and finally stood up, following her mother and Pei Chi back to her yard.
From the compound to her own yard, this is the road she is most familiar with. She seems to be able to walk back with her eyes closed, but somehow, this road that she could walk back quickly in the past, this time, Pei Yu felt that it was an extremely long ordeal, and every step was difficult.
It seemed that for the first time she felt that she could not face her mother...
It's not because she thinks she did something wrong this time, but... she made her mother feel uncomfortable.
No matter what, she just made her mother sad...
And my mother was so worried about her brother that she got sick...
She really didn't want her mother to worry about her affairs again...
After entering the yard, before entering her room, Mrs. Pei paused slightly outside the door. Mrs. Pei seemed to have calmed down a lot now. She turned around and patted the back of Pei Chi's hand. Calmly said: "Chi'er, you go back first."
"Mom, I was the one who spoke harshly to Yu'er just now. It's not Yu'er's fault for this, it's all that..."
Mrs. Pei seemed to be suppressing her emotions and interrupted Pei Chi without much expression, "Chi'er, mother asked you to go back first. If you have any questions, I will ask Yu'er herself."
Pei Chi looked at Mrs. Pei, hesitant to speak. He wanted to say something, but he could clearly feel that nothing he said was right. Therefore, Pei Chi hesitated for a moment, and finally had to say, "Well " He made a sound, and then looked at Pei Yu who lowered his head and said nothing. When he walked past her, he whispered to her, "Speak carefully, don't make mother angry."
After Pei Chi left, Mrs. Pei entered the room. Pei Yu did not dare to neglect and had to follow silently.
There was only one lamp lit in the room, so it was a bit dark.
As soon as Mrs. Pei sat down, she asked Pei Yu to light the lamps on the table.
Pei Yu then went to light the lamp obediently, but felt even more ashamed in her heart, as if she was about to be stripped naked in front of her mother and examined by her mother.
Pei Yu took the lighted lamp and put it in front of the table, then stood obediently in front of her mother, lowering her head and waiting for her mother's judgment.
"Don't just stand, sit down."
Pei Yu had no choice but to sit down silently. She felt uneasy in her heart. She always felt that the calmer her mother was, the more scared she would be.
After she sat down, Mrs. Pei slowly raised her eyes, looked at Pei Yu for a long time, and finally said, "Tell me, what happened between you and that King Cheng?"
Pei Yu became nervous again, bit her lip, and clenched the fingers of her hands tightly. She was thinking about where to start, and she spoke like a sentence: "That's it... The prince and I are indeed because of I just met my brother's case. At first, I thought there was something wrong with the prince. However, after getting along with him slowly, I found that the prince is actually a very good person... He is not what the outside world said... "
Pei Yu wanted to continue talking, but Mrs. Pei quietly interrupted her words, highlighted her key points and asked: "Since we got along slowly, when did it start?"
Pei Yu lowered her head, held her fingers tightly together, and replied in a low voice: "After dad and brother are imprisoned..."
"Why did you go to find him?"
For the first time, Pei Yu felt that being interrogated like this by her mother felt unspeakably unbearable. In addition, she felt very unsure and did not dare to say anything else. She could only answer her mother's questions, "For... I beg the prince to spare my brother."
"What did you ask him for?"
Pei Yu felt something stinging coming towards her face. She was so stimulated that she couldn't help but close her eyes. She didn't dare to raise her head to look at her mother, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "I... thought about accompanying him with my body, but The prince did not accept it.”
Mrs. Pei stared at her and said nothing for a long time.
"Mother, the prince really doesn't..."
Mrs. Pei finally remembered something, "During that time, you lied to your mother and said you were going out to get medicine, but you were going to his house to stay with him, right?"
Pei Yu nodded slightly in shame and clenched her fingers tighter.
At this time, Mrs. Pei slowly closed her eyes and was silent for a long time. Then she opened her eyes again and asked slowly: "Where did he touch you?"
"No..." Pei Yu looked up and saw Mrs. Pei's eyes looking over her. She had to purse her lips and said again honestly, "I have only hugged me... and kissed me..."
When Mrs. Pei heard this, she stared at her with depressed eyes for a long time, and said word by word: "Gu Chengxuan really has a face."
Pei Yu knew that her mother was angry, so she couldn't help but said, "Mother, Your Majesty has never forced me. It's true that Yu'er didn't lie to you!"
"He is a high-ranking and powerful king. If he really wants to do something to you, do you dare to resist? What's more, you are doing it for... your father and the others..." Mrs. Pei's face turned a little pale, and her suppressed voice gradually became smaller. She was trembling a little, feeling angry and hateful, "He is a prince. He wants no beauty, but he wants to humiliate you... He is a man in his thirties, how can he attack a little girl."
Mrs. Pei couldn't tell whether she felt more hatred or pain in her heart. She cultivated Pei Yu no less than Pei Chi. Pei Yu had been raised in fine clothes and fine food since she was a child. She wanted nothing at home. Although she was wronged, she did not beg for anything else. She only hoped that Pei Yu could marry a good family in the future and be happy for the rest of her life...
But the beautiful little girl in her family didn't even have time to fall in love with any boy before she was taken over by King Cheng...
She didn't know what kind of person Cheng Wang was. She only knew that Cheng Wang was almost one year older than Pei Yu. They were almost fifteen years apart. Cheng Wang had rich life experience. What kind of person was he? I have never experienced it before. It is not easy for him to coax a little girl named Yuer into her family...
But, how dare he!
Even though the status of the Pei family is different now, Pei Yu's father was once Mr. Pei after all. How dare he humiliate their daughter like this!
